The righteous Judge on the traitor judges

Judge Andrew Napolitano now weighs in on the treason committed by "Justice" John Roberts, and puts it in context as few other commentators will. But I'll finish the story more frankly than even he does: Obama and his health tax are evil. The Supreme Court (aka Extreme Court, Noxious Nine) is evil, "Justice" Roberts is evil, Boy George Bush is evil for having appointed him. A Vast New Federal Power July 3, 2012 in Front Page, Government, Health, U.S. Constitution, We Refuse Judge Andrew Napolitano By Judge Andrew Napolitano | Judge Napolitano, a former judge of the Superior Court of New Jersey, is the senior judicial analyst at Fox News Channel. He is author of It Is Dangerous to Be Right When the Government Is Wrong and Lies the Government Told You and others. Post image for A Vast New Federal Power If you drive a car, I’ll tax the street, If you try to sit, I’ll tax your seat. If you get too cold, I’ll tax the heat, If you take a walk, I’ll tax your feet. – The Beatles in “The Taxman” Of the 17 lawyers who have served as chief justice of the United States, John Marshall — the fourth chief justice — has come to be known as the “Great Chief Justice.” The folks who have given him that title are the progressives who have largely written the history we are taught in government schools. They revere him because he is the intellectual progenitor of federal power. Marshall’s opinions over a 34-year period during the nation’s infancy — expanding federal power at the expense of personal freedom and the sovereignty of the states — set a pattern for federal control of our lives and actually invited Congress to regulate areas of human behavior nowhere mentioned in the Constitution. He was Thomas Jefferson’s cousin, but they rarely spoke. No chief justice in history has so pronouncedly and creatively offered the feds power on a platter as he. Now he has a rival. No one can know the true motivations for the idiosyncratic rationale in the health care decision written by Marshall’s current successor, John Roberts. Often five member majorities on the court are fragile, and bizarre compromises are necessary in order to keep a five-member majority from becoming a four-member minority. Perhaps Chief Justice Roberts really means what he wrote — that congressional power to tax is without constitutional limit -- and his opinion is a faithful reflection of that view, without a political or legal or intra-court agenda. But that view finds no support in the Constitution or our history. It even contradicts the most famous of Marshall's big government aphorisms: The power to tax is the power to destroy.

But if you'll read Wikipedia's summary of the tough case of Marbury vs. Madison for which he's most (in)famous, it sounds rather more conservative than activist. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marbury_v._Madison I heard in radio news the other day that "Justice" Roberts joked that he almost had to run for his life after casting the fateful vote on Obamacare -- and that he made this pronouncement from the cushy depths of some elite country resort. Isn't it good of this supposed extreme conservative to ridicule the anguish of we who do love the truth and want what's right? This morning the despicable neocon "Doctor" William Bennett, a guest multiple times on James Dobson's Focus on the Family show, was filling the airwaves via his own daily program with tripe about how Roberts was technically correct in his vote according to some abstruse casuistries of the law. Another appointee by a viciously deranged republiCON president, ugly, lumpy Bennett works every day to keep the sheeple stupid and clueless. How long, O Lord? /\/.\/\/. *Wikipedia: He served as United States Secretary of Education from 1985 to 1988. He also held the post of Director of the Office of National Drug Control Policy (or "Drug Czar") under George H. W. Bush.
